The superyacht that knows what you want before you do: Futuristic concept uses AI to anticipate passengers' desires by spying on them

An onboard computer watching your every move might sound like something out of 2001: A Space Odyssey. But now, a futuristic superyacht plans to use AI to learn what you want before you even realise it. Just like HAL 9000 from Stanley Kubrick's sci-fi classic, the ship's computer will spy on its passengers to learn more about their desires.
Designed by the Italian shipyard Rossinavi, the 43-metre-long Solsea will use that information to tailor itself to the needs of individual guests. Rossinavi says that this onboard AI has been designed to make travel more comfortable and maximise the yacht's eco-friendly potential.
Crew members will be able to interact with the system, with the AI offering guidance on sustainable practices and encouraging greener behaviours. Partly powered by solar panels, the yacht will also use its AI to optimise the efficiency of its hybrid-electric motors, allowing for transatlantic journeys.
Federico Rossi, chief operating officer of Rossinavi, says: 'Following the success of the first catamaran equipped with artificial intelligence, we’re thrilled to unveil Solsea, a fresh reinterpretation of this cutting-edge naval technology.'. Italian shipbuilder Rossinavi has unveiled a futuristic superyacht which uses AI to predict its passengers' needs before they are even aware of them.
